The food was delicious and the service was excellent!! I had wings which should be good as it's a wing joint. My sister had the classic burger. She said it was the best burger she's ever had at a restaurant. That's saying a lot as she's had a burger just about everywhere! We'll definitely go back!! read more

I've always loved the burger special here on Tuesdays. Thick juicy cheeseburger cooked to order. The fresh cut fries are so good. And the price is awesome. Then tonight, I was SHOCKED! Picked up my order and headed home. The fries were awesome as usual. The burger was a total disappointment. Thin frozen patty cooked with heavy seasoning. I could order this at any fast food place. What happened? Please tell me this isn't a permanent change. Hoping this was an isolated mishap. read more

I ordered the cajun chicken alfredo for delivery. I had some credits expiring and wanted to try something new and this place had been on my list. Took about an hour for my food to arrive but overall it was decent - warm, good amount of chicken and broccoli - the sauce was creamy but slightly on the bland side. My delivery driver gets 5 stars though - she gave me a holiday card! read more

If you are looking for an upscale, a bit overpriced, loud sports bar, with some pretty good pub food, this is your place! The majority of the space inside is given over to the bar area where large screen TVs dominate, even in their silence. I don't do the sports bar scene, but I like to drop in for an early lunch, where me and the rest of the blue hairs occupy the majority of the non-sports bar area. The pub style food is consistently solid, the young female wait staff are consistently looking for focus while wondering where to go when their shift ends, and the music is consistently loud & annoying! My last time in I had the Fish and Chips, and while the dish was OK it was not nearly as good as versions served at other restaurants that use Cod rather than Flounder. The softer-fleshed flounder does not hold up nearly as well in taste or texture. Would not reorder! Ambiance - 3 Service - 3 Food - 3 Value - 3 read more

This location isn't very consistent - but then again, neither am I. Two weeks ago I had wings from here that were the best Ive had in Winston-Salem since I touched down almost 4 years ago. Last friday, a week later I went back for the same experience and MAN was I disappointed. The wings were dry like they were sitting and then reheated. Tough and the seasoning wasn't very abundant. I said I'm not very consistent because I didn't write the positive review of the first order of wings... It's football season and they are 1-1 so I may give them a tiebreaker to see if I can get back the first experience. read more

In my opinion, this is, by far, one of Winston-Salem's better, cleaner and stylish, hip sports bars to gather for a good time with friends and fellow sports fans! Located in the plaza, shopping center directly across the street from Hanes Mall, this massive restaurant has both bar and booth seating splattered all throughout it, with vibrant, glowing flat screens hovering over everyone that feature everything from football, soccer, rugby, baseball and basketball games - both collegiate and professional! Although I can't offer any recommendations as far as the food (since I was only there for drinks), I will see the food look quite popular with the rest of the patrons. One cannot help but see (and smell) the constant tempting, hot plates of various bar food being delivered to various tables throughout the restaurant. read more

I recently visited kickback jacks in Winston for my sisters birthday. It's your typical sports bar with lots of drinks and some yummy bites. Our waitress was really nice and helpful when ordering. We started our dinner with the cheese curds and they were really good. They were hot and had a nice crispy outer shell. For my entree I got the Cajun Alfredo chicken pasta. Overall I really liked it. It didn't really taste Cajun to me but rather just a creamy cheese sauce but it was still really good. They also gave my sister a complimentary ice cream sundae for her birthday, which she enjoyed. They also have lots of drink specials and their rum buckets are really good. I think this is the perfect place to go to watch a game and get a bite to eat. read more

It's bar food, nothing special but not horrible either. I occasionally stop in even when I can't drink (work hours) and order one of their lunch specials: a side salad and four small pieces of pizza. Again, certainly it isn't gourmet food, but it does the job and does so both effectively and frugally. My preferences for the lunch deal? The Carnivore pizza (three kinds of meat) and a Caesar salad. They've got a punch card deal during lunch hours as well, one that I believe yields free food after about ten visits, but I've never cashed in on that as I misplace the cards or leave them in the wrong locations. Outside of work hours, I've stopped in for a few brews every once in a while. The draft selection isn't bad, nor are the prices. Service has generally been good in each visit. I recall a slow waitress on one visit, but everyone has a rough day on occasion. Otherwise, no complaints. read more

Don't order the ribs! Brought me out the skinniest, skimpiest ribs that was like rib jerky. Manager offered to make me an additional half rack and brought out the same thing. Someone else in my party had thick ribs but I guess I got the butt end of the stick because mine were dry and barely had any meat on them. Waitstaff and managers we very polite, and everything else was good! Try the sweet potato waffle fries if you come. read more

Our party of 5 arrived and was promptly seated after a short wait. Our waitress popped over within a minute and was cheerful and attentive and eager for us to place our orders. She suggested the Firecracker Shrimp appetizer, which along with our drinks arrived in short order and was enjoyed by all. So far, so good. After our entrees arrived, we discovered that the mashed potatoes were cold, (not lukewarm, but cold), and the grilled steaks were overcooked. The salads never showed up and after we inquired about them more than halfway through the meal, we compromised and had the salads packaged in takeout containers to be enjoyed at home. The meal was winding down and we were close to receiving our check before an offer was made for drink refills, and the drinks themselves didn't arrive until even later. We loved the atmosphere and overall appearance of the restaurant. However, even with a fantastic waitress, the serving staff seemed completely out of sync, as the kitchen crew, bartenders, and drink servers were not networked in a coordinated manner. So, the family was a little disappointed as we had hoped for a better overall dining experience. I just want to add that we didn't show up at prime time (6:00 PM). Actually, we intentionally waited to arrive after 7:30 PM to avoid the biggest crowd. Yet even with the peak crowd gone and several tables empty, there was much room for improvement with the staff. So, bottom line: when you spend $175 at a restaurant, you anticipate great food, good service, and for the meal to flow smoothly. And our experience was lacking in a couple of areas. read more

We were in Winston-Salem for a weekend getaway. We decided to stop in and give this place a try. We are glad we did! The food and service was great! The spinach dip was absolutely Amazon!! The best I've had anywhere!! I ordered the Philly cheesesteak and fries and it was delicious. My husband ordered the seafood platter. He did not have one complaint! He said it was so good that no tarter sauce or shrimp sauce was needed. The service was great even though they seemed short staffed. The prices were decent. We will definitely be looking for this restaurant closer to home. read more

I'm going a bit against the grain here, but I can't see KBJ's as les than a 4 star restaurant. It's a sports bar...through and through. Fans of Tripp's, the previous occupant, will be disappointed, but if there were many of them, Tripp's would still be open. KBJ's is covered in televisions, so don't expect the food to be first notch here and you won't be disappointed. Any-who, on to the experience. The first thing that hit me was the smell (the restaurant smells something strange, at least on this night) and the oddish behavior of the hostess (I had to tell her four times we had three people). Beyond that, the service was good. We also received food quickly. We ordered the chicken philly (solid), the bang bang shrimp (star of the night), the garlic buffalo wings, and the hot buffalo wings (grilled wings on both orders). For me, there was more "burnt" flavor than dipping sauce flavor, but they were fall-off-the-bone tender. Not bad. Overall, it was a pretty good experience. read more

Today was my first time at this restaurant. We went for lunch and I was surprised at how busy the parking lot was. The door service was quick and our waitress showed up immediately and took the order. After that She was busy and slightly attentive and did not ask about our drinks the entire time. Not the worst service I have had but I wondered if she was new to the job or just overworked. I had the classic burger which was cooked right (medium) and had fried pickle chips on it. The burger was really good and super messy. The fries were hand cut and salted nicely with a decent oil flavor. Kind of reminded me of Five Guys fries. My date had a buffalo chicken wrap that tasted fine but mostly consisted of wrap and veggies. Not much chicken in that thar wrap, son! Paid about $21 for two lunches. Would I go back? I would. read more

I have been here twice now and tried a different sandwich both times. Can't go wrong with anything on the menu as far as I can tell and it stays busy but not crowded because of its off the beaten track location.

Second time here. The first was actually opening night. I was pregnant and hungry and my family and I came. My husband, toddler and I. It was pretty good then. Now, five weeks postpartum, hubby and I are back and it's amazing!! The service is good, the pace is easygoing, and the food is hot and tasty. Tonight's choice was the crab cake medallions and spinach dip. Something light, but filling. The medallions are soft, fluffy and melt in your mouth. They're smaller than I imagined, but the spinach dip as backup is perfect. My husband snatched the sirloin and Lemon Pepper wings. The wings were PERFECT!!! Not soggy just crisp and tasty. The strawberry Cruzan Rum bucket is pretty smooth. Tart. But exactly the right amount. Bartender attentive. Wondering what we'll try next!!! read more

Haven't been here since it was Tripp's. Same restaurant owners but a different brand restaurant. Tripp's was more of a restaurant. Kick Back is a Sports Bar with a real neighborhood feel. I had New Orleans Pasta and was disappointed. Wife had a Philly Chicken and was thrilled. With so many choices in the area, probably wouldn't come back. Since it's on the backside of the Mall, it's convenient as well as easy to get in and out. I would have given this a three but the service was pretty good. read more

The staff and cleanliness were great. Our waitress was very friendly and helpful during our meal. I found their wine menu extremely sub par and took some pics. While they have a lot of beer choices, the selections are also sub par. For example, the Ales/IPA section lists 8 beers and all but 1 are IPAs. If you are riding the popular wave of IPAs, you are good. If not, poor choices. Another example, their Porters/Stouts section lists only 1 crappy choice despite listed as pleural. Perhaps removing the plural meaning from the menu since there is no real choice by only having 1 beer listed. The wine selection is comical and unless you are a Cupcake fan you are screwed. It is worth noting my daughter has been on several occasions and has enjoyed it. She sent a great looking pic of wings during one her trips and I had to try. Ugh, more disappointment. The flavor was lacking in many ways and I am not convinced they partially deep fry the wings then finish them on the grill as there was an overpowering oil taste. She raves about the burgers so perhaps they are better. The time it took to receive our drinks was a bit of a let down as well. They were not busy at all and it took forever to get our 1 glass of wine and 1 beer. Matter of fact, the cheesy fry app came first. No excuse to have to wait that long on poured drinks on a slow day. The cheesy fries were good a d we devoured them quickly. I will not be in a rush to return anytime soon unless I am hanging with my daughter. read more

Went into the restaurant late at night and it was pretty busy, which is always good. Soon as I walked it, the whole restaurant was humid and hot. Usually I don't have a problem with that, but I was already hot from work.. was hoping to be able to cool off and enjoy my meal. I ordered the Cheese Fries, which were smaller than other kickbacks I have been too. I was with my husband, so I asked for an extra ranch so my husband didn't have to share.. and they brought out the smallest cup they had... cheese on the fries was hardly melted.. but editable.. We ordered 10pc Grilled Wings to split and they were amazing!! Good grill marks and Flavor. Other than the Hot Restaurant it was enjoyable and would come back once A.C. is going. read more

My visit was much to be desired. The pasta salad tasted like cardboard, the Cheerwine was flat and…read more 1/2 of the wings were the wrong flavor. I get that its busy on Wednesdays but I was treated like that I was invisible despite the fact that I was sitting in the middle of the bar directly in front of a touchscreen monitor. Not that I like attention (as a matter of fact, I loathe it) but the server seemed like she was catering to everyone except for me...especially the crowd who showed up way after I sat down and the guy who was next to my right who ask for the remote twice in which she gave to him in a flash. After waiting several minutes (as in 20+) just to get a drink, I just said forget it and got a to-go box. I could use stronger and harsher words to describe my visit but I'm opting not to.

We were seated in the back where we have sat many times, but when we sat down we felt like we were in a Chinese school! The overhead music was nice, but we could hear not only that music, but the music from back in the kitchen. We asked the waitress to please have them cut their music down and she might have, but it got turned down just a little, then almost immediately turned back up. I asked to see the manager and when I told her our issue she said, "so you want me to turn my staff's music down because you don't like it and make them work in silence!" I was taken back my that attitude, and told her it had nothing to do with their music, just that my daughter has misophonia, and noises in combination effect her negatively. She said the music was already very low. I asked her to please just lower it, but that never happened. Obviously their management needs some training on customers being the priority! We will go to the Kernersville restaurant from now on.

We were interested in watching the Oregon Duck football game this afternoon and were looking for a place to watch the second half of the game while grabbing something to eat. My wife did a bit of searching and suggested the Playground. We mentioned this to our friend and neighbor and he had nothing but great things to say about the place. We arrived shortly after 5pm on Saturday evening, and had no trouble finding parking. We were immediately impressed. They have a nice outdoor patio and once we walked inside we could see this was not your typical "sports bar". In addition to the bar/counter area, there are tables throughout the main area near the stage and bar. They also have virtual games that allow people to play everything from Zombie Dodgeball to Baseball. We took a seat at the bar and asked if one of the TV's could be changed to the Oregon game. They were happy to accommodate us but we also appreciated that they checked with another couple they knew were interested in the games playing to ensure we each had at least one TV focused on the game of our choice. The young man who provided us menus was friendly and helpful. We also met the manager, Sam who gave us a bit more history on the place and we discovered we are both Penn State Alum, which was cool. I ordered an IPA on draft and saw for the first time a draft system that fills the cups from the bottom with a magnet filler system. Sam and I talked a bit about it and how it works, which we found really interesting. We looked over the food menu and were happy to see they had both Roman style pizza crust options and cauliflower crust options. My wife ordered the pesto pizza on cauliflower crust with no cheese. I ordered the meat lovers pizza on the roman crust with no ranch dressing. My wife visited the women's restroom and reported they were spotless and well equipped. She even made a comment to Sam that she really appreciated the level of attention that is clearly put into the place to keep it clean and well kept. Our pizzas were ready about the same time as the band arrived to begin setting up for a 7:30pm show. We were told the band was a county music group that was really good. We've since started following the Playground on Facebook to keep up with their music offerings. We opened our pizza boxes and both pies looked delicious! My wife oohed and awed over each bite of her pizza and managed to eat the whole thing. I was equally pleased with my pizza but only managed to eat half since it contains a lot more dough than the cauliflower crust, but that leaves me with leftovers, which I love. Overall, this was a great experience and we will absolutely be back! We are also excited that we've found our new place to watch College Football this year. A big shoutout to Sam and the people at the Playground. You've created something really special in our neighborhood.

They obviously sat in the window for a long time because the ends were so hard you couldn't bite them, and the cheese sauce had a film on the top that was hard to break through.

My husband and I had our 9-month-old baby with us, and it felt very manageable even when he got a little vocal It took a little long to order our food, but it did look like the employees were covering tables, hostessing, and making drinks, so I give them credit for managing the busyness. I got the BBQ pork nachos, which were so yummy!! The portion was very giving, and my husband and I definitely could've shared, but I was happy to have it all to myself. My husband got the Panini Club. It was on the smaller side especially compared to mine, but it was still very tasty. We can't wait to come back here! A chill restaurant with great food.
